[Comprehensive] How to pretend to be a victim?

Chapter 13

Watson squeezed in, his eyes lingering back and forth between the two of them, his expression tense: "What happened?"

Seeing Sherlock frowning at Chen Shuyao, Watson's gaze also fixed on her face.

"So what charades are you two playing?"

Hearing a wail, Chen Shuyao pursed her lips, frowned and pointed at the photo in the newspaper: "Isn't this too ugly?"

This is the first photo of her and the male god, which is of epoch-making significance, how could it be like this!

Watson couldn't help laughing, and pointed in the direction of the window: "Why don't you go downstairs and take a photo together again? I guess it's okay to make a photo."

Sherlock looked at Watson in disbelief: "She doesn't understand, you don't understand?"

"Sorry, I don't understand... what?" Watson shrugged.

There were footsteps behind him, and Watson turned around, and saw Lestrade standing in the living room with a file bag. Just as Watson was about to ask, he heard Sherlock's voice.

"If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Lestrade should have gathered exactly seven girls..."

Chen Shuyao glanced outside the door: "So you want to summon the dragon?"

Watson, Lestrade, and Sherlock all fell silent when they heard the words.

After being dazed for a few seconds, Sherlock regained his thoughts, turned back and walked beside him and said, "There were a total of eight girls in Suanshuyao on the playground that night. Their height, weight, and even body shape are all very similar."

Sherlock took the information in Lestrade's hand on his own, and quickly scanned the large amount of text on it.Soon a few words emerged from the crowd—highjump, sprint, champion.In the end, his gaze was locked on the photo in the upper right corner of the profile, his upper and lower eyelashes moved invisibly, but his gaze was slightly dull.

"Tell me you found everyone."

"Actually." Lestrade coughed twice, "One girl is missing, but I found the other six, so..."

"It's her?" Sherlock held up the file, pointed to the photo above, and locked Lestrade's eyes.

"How do you know?" Lestrade frowned unconsciously.

The corner of Sherlock's mouth hooked: "Good thing."

Lestrade looked blank: "Sorry, you said this is a good thing?"

"Of course it's a good thing."

These people are all substitutes for Chen Shuyao, and the selection criteria is naturally similarity.At that time, they tried their best to show physical incoordination, and soon the police intervened. They couldn't understand the depth of things, and they would definitely choose the person with the most similar appearance. The similarity between Susan and Chen Shuyao is as high as 89%, which is undoubtedly The best candidate.

Sherlock threw the information back into Lestrade's arms, raised his collar and shouted, "Shuyao, come with me to meet your twin sisters."

Watson scratched his forehead: "So, are you sure you won't be trampled by reporters when you go out?"

Sherlock's eyes paused for a moment, but immediately, he looked at Lestrade, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth: "On behalf of 221 Baker Street, thank you for your love and dedication."

Lestrade was stunned: "Sorry, what do you mean?"

After a few minutes...

221 Baker Street, behind the door.

"I don't think I can do it, how are we like?" Lestrade pointed at Sherlock.

Mrs. Hudson tightened Sherlock's scarf silently: "That's a good question, I don't think I can go back to being 17 years old."

Sherlock looked up at Lestrade in his long coat and hat: "Watson, do you have any spare insoles?"

Watson glanced at Sherlock impatiently, lowered his voice, "Do you think I'm selling insoles?"

"That's it. It's probably a centimeter or two. I can't tell." Sherlock nodded to himself.

"...Sherlock, I'm helping you, but you actually attacked me personally."

"I object. The questioning of your height is based on a scientific and rigorous attitude, stating facts, not attacking. And I think you are doing this to let me solve the case earlier, so in the final analysis, you are helping yourself." Sherlock The corner of his mouth hooked, "It's enough to hide it for a minute."

"Hi."

Everyone followed the sound and saw Chen Shuyao standing in the middle of the stairs.She was wearing men's leather shoes, wearing a large suit, her hair was completely rolled up and tucked into a gentleman's hat, and there were two mustaches stuck to her mouth.Holding on to the banister of the stairs, he went downstairs carefully.

"Am I okay with this?"

"Although it's strange, it should be possible to hide it for a minute." Sherlock frowned, "After a minute, just run."

"There may be some problems..."

Before the words fell, a scream was heard.

Everyone followed the sound and saw that the person who was standing upright just now had successfully... lying on the floor of the first floor, with two leather shoes, one was still on the steps just now, and the other... was in Sherlock's hand .

Chen Shuyao supported the ground with both hands and rubbed her knees: "The shoes are too big."

Mrs. Hudson shook her head: "Oh my god, so why don't you help poor Shuyao?"

"That's right." Watson and Lestrade said in unison, and then took a big step back almost at the same time, leaving only Sherlock closest to Chen Shuyao.

"..." Although Sherlock expressed his helplessness, he also walked forward, but when he passed by Chen Shuyao, he didn't pause for a moment, and walked directly upstairs.

Watson and Mrs. Hudson looked at each other and were about to remind them when Sherlock bent over to pick up the other shoe on the stairs, turned around and walked to Chen Shuyao, and put the two shoes side by side at her feet. Then stretch out your left hand.

Chen Shuyao raised her eyes to meet his gaze. His eyes were as clear as a spring, but they seemed to be full of magnetism. When she was in it, it wasn't just her thoughts that were disturbed.

He seems to be different from when we first met.Especially the night before last, when he put aside the case and chose to hug her.To her, it was like a nympho dream.

She slowly stretched out her hand to rest on his palm, and the little expectations in her heart took root little by little.

Will he say some words of concern, just a few words are fine.

I saw Sherlock raised the corner of his mouth: "So you should wear your own shoes, it's easier to run."

"..." The corners of Chen Shuyao's mouth twitched, "Thank you very much for being so considerate of me."

Really useful advice!

According to Sherlock's request, Lestrade and Mrs. Hudson took the lead, he and Chen Shuyao took advantage of the chaos to escape, and Watson took care of the aftermath.

Thus, such a scene happened.

The taxi faced the enemy from the left, the rear, and the right. Crazy reporters slapped the windows and asked one question after another.

"Mr. Holmes, please tell us something about the night before."

"Who is that girl? A victim or your crush?"

"Does a high IQ and anti-social talent like you also want to get married and have children?"

……

Before being surrounded, the driver stepped on the accelerator, and the black taxi quickly dragged the crazy crowd behind.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Sherlock suddenly called to stop.

Chen Shuyao looked out the window, and she hadn't arrived at the police station at all, but when she got into the car, Sherlock clearly said that she was going to the police station.

"Thank you." Sherlock gave the fare, glanced at Chen Shuyao, "get off."

When Chen Shuyao got off the car, Sherlock was already standing in front of a store.She walked over and looked into the house through the glass door. It turned out to be an electronics store.

"We're not going..."

Before he finished speaking, Sherlock stepped up the steps and opened the door.

"The police station?" Chen Shuyao sighed and followed.

I have to say that it is really important to have an English context. A little trash like her has made a qualitative leap in English in just half a month. At least she can understand a lot of things.but!Without the translation treasure, it is still very difficult to keep up with Sherlock's speaking speed.

Therefore, she didn't listen carefully to anything that wasn't told to her, it was too brain-intensive.When Sherlock entered the store, he started talking to the shopping guide, and she walked around casually.At a certain moment, she saw a plain pink Bluetooth headset, reached out to take it down, and flipped through it repeatedly.In the end, she was suddenly taken away by someone and hung up. Before she could react, an earphone was plugged into her ear.

"Listen, do you think it's useful?"

Chen Shuyao was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at Sherlock, her eyes were full of astonishment: "You came here to buy this for me?"

"If you can't keep up with my rhythm, it will slow down the efficiency of handling the case." Sherlock glanced down at the manual, "The operation is very simple, as long as you feel that you can hear clearly and the translation is correct..."

"That's it."

Chen Shuyao watched Sherlock pay the money neatly, and walked to the door again.A strange feeling rose in my heart.She jumped over a few steps and walked side by side with him.

"So the night before last, after I left, what happened, what have you seen..."

Feeling a slender and weak hand passing through his arm and waist, gently grabbing his sleeve, his brows slowly frowned, and he turned his head to look at the people around him. At that time, someone with a beard, His eyes wandered around as if nothing had happened.His thoughts paused for a moment.

"So, who have you met?"

Fragmentary pictures came into mind, Chen Shuyao paused, "Ethan, there is another man I don't know."

"The person who pulled you at the door of the conference room?"

Chen Shuyao was startled: "Yes."

After that, the two of them didn't speak any more, and Sherlock didn't even reject her small thoughts, so he walked all the way to the police station arm in arm, and met Donovan waiting in the corridor.

"Hey, freak, why are you so slow today? It's not like you." Donovan glanced at Chen Shuyao's hand clenched on Sherlock's sleeve, "So... this is your new | love?"

Sherlock didn't seem to care: "What about people?"

Reflecting on the glass, Chen Shuyao saw her appearance in men's clothing, and suddenly withdrew her hand, smiling unnaturally: "It's just a friend, a friend."

Following Donovan to the door of the interrogation room, through the glass, Chen Shuyao saw those girls who were very similar to her, and the scene of the leading girl taking off her hat that night appeared before her eyes.That face was so much like hers.

"They are just your substitutes. The chosen ones will live on as you. They know you are still alive, but they still capture someone back. It means that there is someone who desperately wants|get|you " Sherlock stared at the person inside the glass, narrowing his eyes slightly, "But the substitute can never match the real person, so once your face is locked, it will be very dangerous."

Chen Shuyao was stunned: "That's why I was asked to wear a scarf..."

Sherlock's poker-like expression was reflected on the glass, his lips opened and closed, but his tone was gentle.

"You are not Number Eight, nor anyone's puppet. You are yourself."
